BATTERIES
Our LFP batteries have an internal Battery Management System (BMS) which monitors the voltage, current
and battery temperature of each cell in the LFP battery. If conditions are over the limits of the battery, the
BMS will turn the battery off, similar to a circuit breaker in your house. The battery will turn itself back on
when the conditions are within the battery parameters.
The Battery Management System (BMS) monitors
voltage current and battery temperature for you.

While LFP batteries are more expensive than SLA batteries, the cost is reasonable if you are looking for
longer cycle life and to save time through quick and easy charging.
